This one won’t be easy for the Toon Army, Metalist are sitting in fourth place in their domestic league and have won six of their eight Europa League matches so far this season (their defeat was a dead rubber clash in the final group game).

Alan Pardew has normally rotated his first team for this competition and that is something to consider when placing your bets. They are strong at home though, winning three of their four matches at home in this competition so far this season and drawing the other, that 1-1 draw was the first goal they conceded at home.
